This is a library for interacting with the Browserless.io APIs.
For the time being, this library only supports these APIs:
- /pdf - for generating PDFs from a URL or inline HTML (like wkhtmltopdf, but better -- more up-to-date browser engine, etc.)
You either need to use your own self-hosted Browserless instance (see how to do it with Docker) or their hosted offering (see Pricing).
You could use the following compose.yml setup:
version: '2.1'
services:
browserless:
image: ghcr.io/browserless/chromium:v2.23.0
restart: unless-stopped
# Matches the owner (`blessuser:blessuser`) of `/usr/src/app`
user: 999:999
environment:
CONCURRENT: 10
TOKEN: SOME_TOKEN_HERE
# Not exposing the port is recommended, if PHP is running in a container alongisde this one
ports:
- "127.0.0.1:3000:3000"
tmpfs:
- /tmp$browserlessApiUrl = 'http://localhost:3000'; // Or 'http://browserless:3000', etc.
$browserlessToken = 'SOME_TOKEN_HERE';
$browserlessTimeoutSeconds = 15;
$client = new \Devture\Component\Browserless\Client(
new \GuzzleHttp\Client(),
$browserlessApiUrl,
$browserlessToken,
$browserlessTimeoutSeconds,
);$url = 'https://devture.com';
$pdfCreationRequest = new \Devture\Component\Browserless\Model\PdfCreationRequest();
$pdfCreationRequest->setUrl($url);
$pdfCreationRequest->setOptions([
'printBackground' => true,
'format' => 'A4',
'landscape' => true,
]);
$pdfBytes = $client->createPdfFromRequest($pdfCreationRequest);$html = '<html><body>Some <strong>HTML</strong> here</body></html>';
$pdfCreationRequest = new \Devture\Component\Browserless\Model\PdfCreationRequest();
$pdfCreationRequest->setHtml($html);
$pdfCreationRequest->setOptions([
'printBackground' => true,
'format' => 'A4',
'margin' => [
'top' => '20mm',
'bottom' => '10mm',
'left' => '10mm',
'right' => '10mm',
],
]);
$pdfBytes = $client->createPdfFromRequest($pdfCreationRequest);-
the SynergiTech/chrome-pdf-php library can also render PDFs via Browserless
